Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with butter.

  2. Trim the base of the endives and remove any wilted leaves. Cut each endive in half lengthwise.

  3. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for about 1 minute to make a roux.

  4. Gradually whisk in the milk until the mixture is smooth. Cook the sauce, stirring constantly, until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  5. Place the endives in the prepared baking dish, cut side up. Pour the creamy sauce over the endives, making sure to coat them evenly.

  6. Sprinkle the shredded Gruyere cheese over the endives, covering them generously.

  7. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

  8. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

  9. Once baked, garnish with fresh chopped parsley for a pop of color and added flavor.

  10. Serve the Baked Endives With Cheese hot, either as a savory side dish or a light main course.
